Seniaru Mori

The Seniaru Mori, known as the sacred forest, is a land that the Jiangsu mistakenly travel through while going to the Senso No Shima in Episode 17, which bears the same name. As Hajito encounters the land, a bluish spirit named Shujinko attacks them while Hajito tries to hunt the animals. The animals, believed to be the first ones ever introduced in Japan, hold a special power to the religion as the powerful spirits of the elements.
